Deprecated. As of IBM Decision Server 7.5, event processing is deprecated.

@Deprecated
public final class IlrBeforeTest
extends IlrBinaryTemporalTest

This class represents binary temporal tests corresponding to the before construct of the rule language.

Warning: Serialized objects of this class will not be compatible with future releases. The current serialization support is appropriate for short-term storage or RMI between applications running the same version of IBM Decision Server.

Constructor Summary

IlrBeforeTest(IlrValue leftEvent, IlrValue rightEvent)
Deprecated. Constructs a before test, testing whether an event occurs before another.

IlrBeforeTest(IlrValue leftEvent, IlrValue rightEvent, IlrValue lowerBound, IlrValue upperBound)
Deprecated. Constructs a before test, testing whether an event occurs before another in a given time window.

Method Summary

Object	exploreTest(IlrFactoryExplorer explorer) Deprecated. Explores this before test using a factory explorer and returns an object as a result.
IlrValue	getLeftEvent() Deprecated. Returns the event on the left-hand side of the operator, that is, the first event in a before test, or the second event in an after test.
IlrValue	getRightEvent() Deprecated. Returns the event on the right-hand side of the operator, that is, the second event in a before test, or the first event in an after test.
void	setLeftEvent(IlrValue leftEvent) Deprecated. Sets the event on the left-hand side of the operator, that is, the first event in a before test, or the second event in an after test.
void	setRightEvent(IlrValue rightEvent) Deprecated. Sets the event on the right-hand side of the operator, that is, the second event in a before test, or the first event in an after test.

Constructor Detail

IlrBeforeTest

public IlrBeforeTest(IlrValue leftEvent,
                     IlrValue rightEvent,
                     IlrValue lowerBound,
                     IlrValue upperBound)

Deprecated.

Constructs a before test, testing whether an event occurs before another in a given time window. The constructed test corresponds to the following construct of the rule language:
left-event before[lower-bound, upper-bound] right-event
The test will be satisfied if the difference between the occurrence time of the right-hand side event and that of the left-hand side event falls within the bounds, inclusive. The objects given as the left- and right-hand side events must be events; otherwise, the corresponding get...Event methods will return null. If either bound evaluates to null, this means that there is no minimal or maximal limit to the occurrence time difference.

Parameters:

leftEvent - The event on the left-hand side of the before operator.

rightEvent - The event on the right-hand side of the before operator.

lowerBound - The minimal delay between the event occurrence times, inclusive, or an IlrValue evaluating to null for minus infinity.

upperBound - The maximal delay between the event occurrence times, inclusive, or an IlrValue evaluating to null for plus infinity.

IlrBeforeTest

public IlrBeforeTest(IlrValue leftEvent,
                     IlrValue rightEvent)

Deprecated.

Constructs a before test, testing whether an event occurs before another. The constructed test corresponds to the following construct of the rule language:
left-event before right-event
The test will be satisfied if the difference between the occurrence time of the right-hand side event and that of the left-hand side event is positive or null. The objects given as the left- and right-hand side events must be events; otherwise, the corresponding get...Event methods will return null.

Parameters:

leftEvent - The event on the left-hand side of the before operator.

rightEvent - The event on the right-hand side of the before operator.

Method Detail

getLeftEvent

public final IlrValue getLeftEvent()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Returns the event on the left-hand side of the operator, that is, the first event in a before test, or the second event in an after test. Returns null if the test was constructed with an object which is not an event.

Specified by:

getLeftEvent in class IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Returns:

The event on the left-hand side of the operator.

setLeftEvent

public final void setLeftEvent(IlrValue leftEvent)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Sets the event on the left-hand side of the operator, that is, the first event in a before test, or the second event in an after test. The given object must be an event, otherwise the reader methods will return null.

Specified by:

setLeftEvent in class IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Parameters:

leftEvent - The event on the left-hand side of the test.

getRightEvent

public final IlrValue getRightEvent()

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Returns the event on the right-hand side of the operator, that is, the second event in a before test, or the first event in an after test. Returns null if the test was constructed with an object which is not an event.

Specified by:

getRightEvent in class IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Returns:

The event on the right-hand side of the operator.

setRightEvent

public final void setRightEvent(IlrValue rightEvent)

Deprecated.

Description copied from class: IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Sets the event on the right-hand side of the operator, that is, the second event in a before test, or the first event in an after test. The given object must be an event, otherwise the reader methods will return null.

Specified by:

setRightEvent in class IlrBinaryTemporalTest

Parameters:

rightEvent - The event on the right-hand side of the operator.

exploreTest

public Object exploreTest(IlrFactoryExplorer explorer)

Deprecated.

Explores this before test using a factory explorer and returns an object as a result.

Parameters:

explorer - The factory explorer.

Returns:

An object which represents the result of the exploration, or null if the method does not return a value.
